by R. Paul Stevens

As Paul Stevens and Dan Williams lead you through this thirteen-session LifeGuide Bible Study on 1 Corinthians, you will see that the issues facing the Corinthian church are little different from the ones your church struggles with year after year. Here in 1 Corinthians is a portrait of Christian community not as it was meant to be, but as it often really is. But, here too is practical advice for overcoming the challenges of life together.
